ceremoNial tattoOS

Intentional tattoos that empower you on your journey

Each tattoo is an original work of art tailored to the client that Sofia intuitively designs with prayer & intention.

When selecting an area to get tattooed on our body , we are working with the issues on your tissues. Energy gets stored in our body, and we want to give awareness to those areas to heal energetically with the tattoo.

Sofia is trauma aware and holds a compassionate container for her clients to feel safe and be seen. Welcoming vulnerability and holding space for each other as we experience the weaving of life.

Every tattoo session will begin with an opening prayer to activate the sacred space and call in our guardians to assist us in the ceremony and energy transfer. Sofia works with ethically sourced medicines like Copal, cedar, sage, and or palo santo to cleanse and ground the energy.

Tattoo sessions with Sofia will consist of medicine music to encourage the client to go into a meditative state as they process the pain and endure with steady breath work, Sofia is always open for connecting in conversations as well, that is if the client have the capacity and comfort to do so.
